I'm closing the door on all my worries
'Cause this is my time, my only time
To sit right back and slowly unwind
To take a deep breath and call it mine
This is my time to float my blues away
I've taken care of business and answered all the questions of the day Now this is my time, my only time
To play with rubber duckie, oh he's so fine
Blowin' bubbles to my toes, it's so sublime
This is my time to float my busy-ness away
My only task at hand is to let this be my time
To ride this wave, float in this sea,
Simply be
I light a candle
Pour the tea
Get naked
Grab the Oprah magazine
Slide in
I've got my music, my loofah and my bath oil
This is my time, my only time
To sit right back and slowly unwind
To play with rubber duckie, he's so fine
To soak my feet and rub them kind
To love this body and call it mine
This is my time to float my evening away
